1
00:00:00,210 --> 00:00:05,210
- Oh boy, the Oculus Quest two.

2
00:00:05,440 --> 00:00:09,770
I've been really excited for this because I don't know if you guys know,

3
00:00:09,770 --> 00:00:16,883
but I've been exercising at home with the original Oculus Quest plan, beat saver, fit X,

4
00:00:18,210 --> 00:00:23,320
I don't even remember what it's called, the boxing one. Yeah, it's one of my favorite things,

5
00:00:23,320 --> 00:00:27,830
pieces of tech to come out in quite some time so I was excited when Oculus said they were making

6
00:00:27,830 --> 00:00:31,020
a Quest two and now we have it here.

7
00:00:31,020 --> 00:00:36,120
Oh, and thanks to Oculus for sponsoring this video. Now, one of the reasons the original Quest was so cool

8
00:00:36,120 --> 00:00:40,360
is because it can be both a standalone VR headset

9
00:00:40,360 --> 00:00:44,920
and a PC VR headset. When we did the Linus tech video on this,

10
00:00:44,920 --> 00:00:48,770
me and Linus said that it was like, it's kind of like the Nintendo Switch of VR.

11
00:00:48,770 --> 00:00:53,770
I think this might even solidify that placement a bit more.

12
00:00:54,180 --> 00:00:58,230
So enough preamble, let's open the box.

13
00:00:58,230 --> 00:01:03,280
Okay, very exciting and there she is. So they went with a white color scheme this time,

14
00:01:03,280 --> 00:01:08,280
which I have to say I appreciate as a minimalist.

15
00:01:08,690 --> 00:01:13,010
Check out that video if you don't know what I'm talking about. So yeah, look at that.

16
00:01:13,010 --> 00:01:18,093
Oh, very nice. Oh, a little letter. When was the last time you played for real, man?

17
00:01:19,776 --> 00:01:23,751
(grunting) What's going on?

18
00:01:23,751 --> 00:01:26,917
Ah. (laughing)

19
00:01:26,917 --> 00:01:30,460
what's this? A shirt?

20
00:01:30,460 --> 00:01:34,653
Play for real. Hey, I'm filming over here, guys.

21
00:01:34,653 --> 00:01:37,760
- [Jono] He's playing for real dude. - I will! And what else we got?

22
00:01:37,760 --> 00:01:42,370
And a hoodie. Wow, whoa, we got all the swag.

23
00:01:42,370 --> 00:01:47,080
A stainless steel bottle, play for real.

24
00:01:47,080 --> 00:01:50,130
Okay, to be clear, that was really nice of Oculus

25
00:01:50,130 --> 00:01:54,310
to send us that stuff, but this is probably not what you're gonna get when you just buy the regular

26
00:01:54,310 --> 00:01:57,820
consumer version of the headset. Just so you know, just so you don't have some

27
00:01:57,820 --> 00:02:01,090
false expectations, you know? Okay, that's all that's in the box.

28
00:02:01,090 --> 00:02:02,440
I'm ready to play for real.

29
00:02:04,710 --> 00:02:12,680
Let's go! Okay, oh boy, that is, I mean, it's a nice looking headset.

30
00:02:15,530 --> 00:02:20,120
So the previous quest was black and it also had kinda this matte finish.

31
00:02:20,120 --> 00:02:26,610
But this is real nice, I like that they kinda switched it up. Okay, so they got this guide for the IPD adjustment

32
00:02:26,610 --> 00:02:30,000
inter pupilary distance which is something,

33
00:02:30,000 --> 00:02:33,700
if you've never played VR, that's something you need to adjust to make things

34
00:02:33,700 --> 00:02:37,930
the clearest because we all have different spaces between where our eyes sit.

35
00:02:37,930 --> 00:02:44,090
On the old Quest, there was like a slider, a physical slider to change that number,

36
00:02:44,090 --> 00:02:47,280
and on this one, it looks like you physically

37
00:02:47,280 --> 00:02:52,000
move them with your hands. I believe there are three positions, yeah.

38
00:02:52,000 --> 00:02:56,300
There's kind of like a far apart, a middle one, and then close together.

39
00:02:56,300 --> 00:03:00,100
We also have this glasses spacer which I will need to use because I'm wearing glasses.

40
00:03:00,100 --> 00:03:06,750
So I'm just gonna put that on actually right now. Okay, this goes in there.

41
00:03:06,750 --> 00:03:11,610
Oh, nice clicks. Great, I'm just gonna put that on.

42
00:03:11,610 --> 00:03:15,280
Actually no, I'm not gonna put it on yet, first let's talk about the controllers.

43
00:03:15,280 --> 00:03:18,840
Okay, so I think that more or less,

44
00:03:18,840 --> 00:03:22,250
these are a very similar design to the first Quest,

45
00:03:22,250 --> 00:03:27,540
but it has a bigger ring and I think that the overall controllers are bigger as well.

46
00:03:27,540 --> 00:03:31,930
So, oh, the battery door. This is something I believe that they worked on

47
00:03:31,930 --> 00:03:38,080
because there were some complaints with the original Quest about the battery door sliding off really easily

48
00:03:38,080 --> 00:03:43,160
because it was like a magnetic attachment. But this one, it's definitely more secure.

49
00:03:43,160 --> 00:03:48,430
Yeah, it clicks into place not with magnets, with like a little plastic doohickey so that's good.

50
00:03:48,430 --> 00:03:51,600
Okay, and finally the last thing is this box

51
00:03:51,600 --> 00:03:56,600
which has reference guide for how to get started and stuff.

52
00:03:57,230 --> 00:04:03,810
I think I already know how. And we got the USBC power adapter and USBC power cord.

53
00:04:05,450 --> 00:04:10,070
Now, I don't believe that this is meant for Oculus Link

54
00:04:10,070 --> 00:04:14,090
which probably makes sense 'cause it's only this long. So you won't be able to connect to your PC

55
00:04:14,090 --> 00:04:19,130
and have a comfortable VR experience that way. And you might ask, why didn't Oculus include

56
00:04:19,130 --> 00:04:22,230
an Oculus link-capable cord in the box

57
00:04:22,230 --> 00:04:27,950
that was long enough for you to be able to play PC VR. I mean, you know, they gotta make some compromises

58
00:04:27,950 --> 00:04:31,780
some places because remember this is a 299 headset,

59
00:04:31,780 --> 00:04:35,800
that's a hundred dollars cheaper than the first Quest for the 64 gig model.

60
00:04:35,800 --> 00:04:38,990
So you know, I can understand it.

61
00:04:38,990 --> 00:04:44,450
The sweatbands work great to kind of be a cushion between the straps, maybe some lttstore sweatbands

62
00:04:44,450 --> 00:04:49,110
just if you're gonna get a Quest two, okay, it can help a lot. The physical design of the headset is very similar;

63
00:04:49,110 --> 00:04:53,370
it's got a power button on the right side, USBC and headphone jack on the left side,

64
00:04:53,370 --> 00:04:56,840
and four sensors for tracking and the pass through

65
00:04:56,840 --> 00:05:01,410
plus feature which lets you see through into the real world. Now this is one of the coolest, I can actually

66
00:05:01,410 --> 00:05:06,208
see you right now because of the pass through feature. Look, I'm gonna come right up to Andy and go.

67
00:05:06,208 --> 00:05:11,480
(laughs) I love you man. I will say that I was a little disappointed

68
00:05:11,480 --> 00:05:15,590
not to see the old strap design return, but this one is very comfortable.

69
00:05:15,590 --> 00:05:19,130
The other one kinda has that plastic on the side that turns into.

70
00:05:19,130 --> 00:05:23,940
Actually the back is hard plastic on the original Quest as well. So I understand why they did this now because

71
00:05:23,940 --> 00:05:29,680
it is a little bit more comfortable having this fabric strap instead of a plastic crown

72
00:05:29,680 --> 00:05:34,780
on your head. Guardian feature, so one of the coolest things about the original Quest was the fact that

73
00:05:34,780 --> 00:05:38,330
it's built in tracking and the Rift S has built in tracking as well.

74
00:05:38,330 --> 00:05:44,740
But the cool thing about the Quest is that you're not tethered to a PC. So you can make your area as large as you want

75
00:05:44,740 --> 00:05:47,453
with no consideration for a cord going to anything.

76
00:05:50,467 --> 00:05:55,536
I'm gonna make it the entire area, even where you're standing, Andy. The other cool thing is that you can walk around

77
00:05:55,536 --> 00:05:58,830
in this space, look at how big my space is.

78
00:05:58,830 --> 00:06:05,520
Now, my other initial impression right off the bat is that things do look significantly sharper.

79
00:06:05,520 --> 00:06:09,110
So the Quest two has two LCD displays,

80
00:06:09,110 --> 00:06:14,110
the resolutions of which are 1832 by 1920, is that right?

81
00:06:14,730 --> 00:06:18,040
At launch, the refresh rate is 72 hertz

82
00:06:18,040 --> 00:06:22,720
which is the same as the original Quest, but they're gonna send out an update soon that

83
00:06:22,720 --> 00:06:26,300
will enable 90 hertz. And so one of the reasons that they were able

84
00:06:26,300 --> 00:06:29,680
to up the specs in that way, to support more resolution and refresh rate

85
00:06:29,680 --> 00:06:32,690
is because they're using the snapdragon XR2 chip

86
00:06:32,690 --> 00:06:35,710
which is made specifically for virtual reality

87
00:06:35,710 --> 00:06:40,140
and augmented reality applications. I know you guys want me to try Beat Saber.

88
00:06:40,140 --> 00:06:44,450
I can feel you thinking that, but I wanna try Vader Immortal first

89
00:06:44,450 --> 00:06:47,870
because it's Star Wars and it's an amazing experience.

90
00:06:47,870 --> 00:06:50,373
Okay, yeah, your hands definitely look,

91
00:06:51,600 --> 00:06:56,570
like things look sharper. Like, I can see like the leather stitching and stuff

92
00:06:56,570 --> 00:06:59,173
on the gloves. Oh, it's a light saber!

93
00:07:00,560 --> 00:07:04,903
Oh, there we go. Oh, now I have a light saber and a blaster.

94
00:07:14,167 --> 00:07:20,290
(laughing) That is just as amazing as I enjoyed it the first time.

95
00:07:20,290 --> 00:07:24,540
I gotta say, one thing I did, they said that the headset is 10% lighter.

96
00:07:24,540 --> 00:07:28,630
I'd say that's an accurate claim. As you guys probably gathered,

97
00:07:28,630 --> 00:07:33,690
the fact that I just played an original Quest title means that the Quest two is backwards compatible

98
00:07:33,690 --> 00:07:38,690
with all Quest content as well as the Oculus PC VR games

99
00:07:40,340 --> 00:07:44,010
that you can play through Oculus link. Let's play something else.

100
00:07:44,010 --> 00:07:48,770
Beat saber! Oh my gosh, people are gonna get so mad at me, I'm doing so,

101
00:07:48,770 --> 00:07:55,030
what?! So Beat Saber's really good for testing

102
00:07:55,030 --> 00:07:58,633
the speed of tracking because you know,

103
00:07:59,528 --> 00:08:02,193
I can't talk and do this at the same time.

104
00:08:03,692 --> 00:08:06,607
Oh my god. (laughing)

105
00:08:07,740 --> 00:08:11,730
I failed again. Okay, so the reason (laughing)

106
00:08:11,730 --> 00:08:17,060
The reason that I'm failing, I would guess, is not the fault of the Quest; it's definitely mine

107
00:08:17,060 --> 00:08:19,963
because I've only played this game like once. Super hot.

108
00:08:21,170 --> 00:08:24,693
Oh my God. I killed him.

109
00:08:25,750 --> 00:08:26,593
I killed him!

110
00:08:30,560 --> 00:08:33,770
Dead, dude. Okay, the other thing is I have this giant space

111
00:08:33,770 --> 00:08:35,220
that normally you don't have.

112
00:08:37,030 --> 00:08:39,393
Oh, give me this, give me that gun.

113
00:08:41,860 --> 00:08:45,210
Bottle to the face and this guy's frickin dead,

114
00:08:45,210 --> 00:08:51,190
dude, you're dead. Well, I gotta say as a regular Quest one user,

115
00:08:51,190 --> 00:08:55,140
my experience today with the Quest two has been pretty impressive.

116
00:08:55,140 --> 00:08:59,870
Now, one thing I haven't really mentioned is that you do have to log in with a Facebook account

117
00:08:59,870 --> 00:09:05,186
if you're gonna use the Quest two and I believe by 2023 if you wanna use any Oculus product,

118
00:09:05,186 --> 00:09:08,680
you will have to use your Facebook account to log in.

119
00:09:08,680 --> 00:09:13,120
And once you do that, it'll be permanently merged. There are other VR options on the market

120
00:09:13,120 --> 00:09:18,140
if that's not something that floats your boat. However, this is super compelling.

121
00:09:18,140 --> 00:09:22,350
If you've never tried the Quest or PC VR

122
00:09:22,350 --> 00:09:25,480
and you've tried like Oculus Go, it's completely different.

123
00:09:25,480 --> 00:09:30,480
This is a fully immersive room scale standing

124
00:09:31,320 --> 00:09:35,660
VR controller hand presence VR experience.

125
00:09:35,660 --> 00:09:40,890
Now, one major thing we did not look at today was Oculus Link: the ability to also function

126
00:09:40,890 --> 00:09:44,880
as a PC VR headset. And we are gonna be looking into that more in depth

127
00:09:44,880 --> 00:09:50,390
in an LTT video so make sure you're subscribed. Stay tuned for that video and thanks to Oculus

128
00:09:50,390 --> 00:09:53,720
for sponsoring that video, this video. I'll see you in the next one.

129
00:09:56,650 --> 00:09:59,443
Play for real! (laughing)
